Founded by Bill English and Susi Damilano in 2003, and described by the New York Times as “a company that stages some of the most consistently high-quality work around, and deemed “ever adventurous” by the Bay Area News Group. Located right in the heart of the Union Square Theater District, SFPH is an intimate alternative to the more traditional theater fare providing audiences the opportunity to experience professional theater with top-notch actors and world-class design in a setting where they are close to the action. The company has received multiple awards for overall productions, acting, and design. Presenting a diverse range of plays and musicals, “making the edgy accessible and the traditional edgy.” The company’s 2012-2013 season marked its 10th anniversary and as it moved to a newly renovated venue, The San Francisco Chronicle raved: “On the verge of opening its 10th season, the company that lived a hand-to-mouth existence for its first few years has become the little playhouse that could. It quickly established a reputation for attracting some of the Bay Area's best acting and directing talent, as well as for its exciting play choices. And with its bold Sandbox Series, it's become a player in developing new works as well.” The San Francisco Playhouse is committed to providing a creative home and inspiring environment where actors, directors, writers, designers, and theater lovers converge to create works that celebrate the human spirit.
